BLANK SKIP
To have the cassette deck automatically fast-forward

of silence, it fast-forwards to the end of the blank section
and resumes normal play from that point. If the tape

As you play or record a tape, the tape counter advances

facing away from you. At the beginning of a tape or
selection, press RESET to reset the counter to 0000. You
can then use the tape counter to quickly locate a specific
section on the tape.
The deck can also show the elapsed playing time (in
minutes and seconds) since you reset the time. To switch
between displays, press TIME/COUNTER on the deck you
are using. (The time does not advance when you fast-
forward or rewind the tape.)
AUTOMATIC SEARCH MUSIC SYSTEM

searches for the blank space before a selection and
automatically stops just before playback begins.

opposite direction of the or indicator.
To skip to the beginning of an earlier selection,
repeatedly press the button.
To skip to the beginning of the next (or a
later) selection:
Press ¡ or 1 — whichever points in the same
direction as the 3 or 2 indicator.
Note: If you press (¡ or 1) more times than the
number of selections on the side you want to search,
and have not set REV MODE to , the search
continues to the other side.
ASMS might not operate as expected if:
The pause between selections is less than 4 seconds
long.
The overall recorded volume level of a selection is
very low.
The noise level between selections is very high.
